Tenant Representation
Need space for your growing business? I represent Tenants in Lease negotiations across office, retail, and industrial space throughout Palm Beach, Martin, and St. Lucie counties. Get favorable terms, fair pricing, and a space that actually works for your operations.
Why You Need Tenant Representation
Most business owners approach Leasing commercial space the same way they'd rent an apartment, they call the number on the "For Lease" sign and negotiate directly with the Landlord's agent.
Here's the problem, that agent works for the Landlord, not you. Their job is to get the landlord the highest rent, longest lease term, and most favorable terms possible. You're negotiating without representation of your own.
Tenant representation levels the playing field. I work for you, not the landlord. My job is to get you the best possible space at the best terms possible.
What's Included in Tenant Representation
Space search. I show you every available option that fits your criteria, not just what one Landlord has available. This includes on market and off market properties for Lease in Palm Beach, Martin, and St. Lucie counties.
Property tours and evaluation. I will personally tour spaces with you, helping you evaluate whether each location truly meets your operational needs. Considerations can include ceiling height, power capacity, parking ratios, zoning compliance, visibility, access. These details matter, but are sometimes overlooked by Tenants.
Lease Negotiation. Commercial Leases are complex. Rent isn't the only factor. Tenant improvement credits, lease length, renewal options, maintenance responsibilities, CAM charges, exclusivity clauses, and early termination provisions all impact your bottom line. I negotiate terms that protect your interests.
Due diligence coordination. Before you sign, we verify zoning allows your intended use, and ensure you're not inheriting someone else's problems.
Transaction management. From Letter of Intent through Lease execution, I manage the process, coordinating with attorneys, review Lease documents, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does tenant representation cost me anything?
In most commercial leases, Tenant representation costs the Tenant nothing out of pocket. We can talk more about this during our initial consultation.
What are CAM charges, and how do they affect what I actually pay?
CAM (common area maintenance) charges are added to base rent to cover shared property costs such as insurance, property taxes, and building expenses.
Am I paying too much for my current lease?
The only way to know is comparing your total rent to what's currently being signed nearby.
